Oklahoma City Zoo Welcomes Fiery-Orange Baby Monkey, Internet Swoons Over … – Bored Panda
Our planet is home to thousands upon thousands of species, large and small, cute and ugly, and human activity has driven many of them to the brink of extinction in just the past few decades. Today, we’re already fighting to ensure that many species simply remain with us. Sometimes, we even succeed.
It’s often easier to restore animal populations in zoos, where they are always under the watchful eye of scientists. Some species, unfortunately, don’t reproduce in captivity, but fortunately, this is not the case with these adorable monkeys, the heroes of our story today.
Meet the Francois’ langur, a small monkey from the marmoset family that in the wild lives in southeastern China and northern Vietnam, but has been on the brink of extinction in recent decades. There are just over 2,000 of these funny, cute monkeys in the world today, so any baby born in captivity truly matters.

Pam and Ripley, a pair of langurs who have been living at the Oklahoma City Zoo since 2021, gave birth to a female infant named Fera last year, and just recently welcomed another addition to the family. The monkeys gave birth to a male baby, who hasn’t yet been named but has already won the hearts of netizens. Simply because he’s a complete cuteness overload!
